Ibn Khaldun's 'Introduction' by Al-Ma'arif is a book on history and sociology. This introduction serves as a gateway to a history book where Ibn Khaldun intended to elucidate the science of history, societal conditions, governance, and the reasons behind their emergence. If sociology can be attributed to a founder, it is undoubtedly Ibn Khaldun. The introduction is considered an important reference for researchers in history, sociology, the rise of nations, or the geography and boundaries of many states of that era, be they Arab or foreign researchers.
